I know this has got to be an even bigger pain for you than it is for me. Thank you for the help you've offered so far.
You have no "Tech_Cost_Factor" effect at all, meaning 0 is always used as the factor. I'm going to open a ticket to freeciv bug tracker about making this more easily detectable error.
The unit graphics in the package are corrupt, so I couldn't load the tileset. I worked around that by setting unit "alt" graphics tags to something that can be found from standard tilesets. I'd recommend such a setup also in your official version.
The only warning I saw loading the ruleset is:
"2: /fast/freeciv/rulesets/3rd/nineages/game.ruleset: unused entry: ruledit.description_"
I also got some warnings about corrupted UTF-8 text characters, likely from the tileset (maybe corrupted just in the transfer, alomng the graphics):
"Invalid string conversion from UTF-8 to UTF-8: Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character."
